Saw this yesterday and thought it was a great origional idea...maybe we could apply it to premiership / all players when the need arises.
One of the players out here who play in front of a weekly crowd or @44,000 supporters, turned up for training one day last week drunk.
Instead of fining him the mandatory and irrelivant 2 weeks wages, his club made him buy ALL 44,000 seat tickets for the fans ! He was them made to walk around the front of the pitch before the game, handing out tickets to all the people in the front rows !!..Televised...
QUALITY...totally shown up !
So at an average of 40 quid a ticket...certain players may not be tempted to go out on benders, get into trouble etc....exp if the play at Man Utd...
Do you think it could work in the Prem..?
Just 1 last point..Joey Barton would need a pay rise though or be very skint eh?
Just a thought
